[QUOTE="roger_m, post: 755134, member: 31436"] About two weeks ago, I could no longer access any Chinese websites when connected to my VPN (ibVPN). I found that the issue was caused by their DNS servers and I didn't have the issue when not using them. However in the past day or so, I can no longer access Chinese sites, even when not using their DNS server. Everything is fine when I'm disconnected from the VPN. According to ibVPN it is an issue with Chine recognising VPNs in general and not just limited to them. This does seems to be the case, as I just had the same issue on another computer, after installing Avira's VPN. However, despite my problems, when I did some quick Google searches, I could not find any posts anywhere about others having the same issue as me. I am wondering if others using VPN have the same issues (e.g. try visiting xiaomi.cn), or if anyone has any potential solutions. My VPN provider has set the can setup a new server for me, which will not blocked by China at the moment, as they won't see it as being a VPN as it is a new server. But, I am concerned about the speed of it, as it will be in a foreign country. [/QUOTE]
